As you may know, Issuepedia has been going slow recently. We are about to fix this, but editing pages must be disabled temporaily to complete this delicate operation.

See http://wiki.on.nimp.org/issuepedia for more information.

In the mean time, there are plenty of other tasks that need to be done. There is a huge backlog of cleanup to do on the French Issuepedia, and there is many controversial topics involving Spanish, German, and Italian-speaking people who want their issues heard on Issuepedia. Have fun and be patient while we fix things.
